MQTT Publisher

---

Hi,

I’m Dietmar and took a look onto the pimatic the last Weekend, as I’m searching for a cheap solution to control some 433Mhz devices and to use the existing remote controls. I’ve got the pimatic running with homeduino. Configured five socket switches (Pollin PFS-3) and were able to control these sockets. As I have already an installation running with homematic devices and ip-symcon, i was looking for a solution to integrate the sockets into the existing system. So I configured some http request and I was able to integrate the sockets into my envrinment.

Now I configured the remote control with four switches (rx). I’m able to create rules and control the sockets with these switches. But I would like to forward the remote control to my other System (ip-symcon). I took a look onto the pimatic mqtt. I installed mosquitto and I’m able to create devices in pimatic as a subscription from the MQTT server. But this isn’t the direction i need. Unfortunately I found no solution to publish the switches from the remote controls.

Is there a solution? Is there someone who can help me?

i´m from IP-Symcon too and i don´t use it anymore
Something like that ? (Haven´t test it)
when $dummy.state changes then publish mqtt message "$dummy.state" on topic "Ip-Symcon/Dummy/State"

Hi Michael,

thanks for you fast respond. Thought also somthing like this but got the Message:

Could not find an provider that provides the next action of “publish mqtt message 4 on topic test”.

I tried also quotas for the Topic as you show in your example. But sam e message.

Try
publish mqtt message "4" on topic "test"

Sorry no success:

Could not find an provider that provides the next action of "publish mqtt message “4” on topic “test”.

the command:

mosquitto_pub -h localhost -t test -m 4

works on the Shell.

mqtt is loaded and activated? (Plugin Section)
In “Settings” you did enter a Broker?
After installing you did a restart?
The publish mqtt message "4" on topic "test" works here.

Sorry i have to sleep now, my Alarm rings at 4:30

Thanks for your help gn8.
For what ever reason, it works now.
